People with the turbonetics kit

Hey Guys,
Just asking a quick favor for everyone that has the turbonetics kit. Can you take a picture under your car where the wastegates and piping is. Like back away from the car and take a picture under your driver and passenger doors. So i can see how low those wastegates and piping sit. For some reason mine sits really low and want to see if it normal.
Thanks

I have already lightly scraped mine on speed bumps so I agree they do seem to be low but my car is also dropped little over 1".

They don't sit abnormally low, but they are still "low" when you look under the car. I have some scuff marks likely from a steeper driveway or speed bump. My car is lowered 1.25" as well, which doesn't make matters any better. Lol. Yours sky SS normall though. I'll take a pictures in just a second and load it up. Sit tight....

If anyone has any doubts about this kit, I would say out them as ease because it's a fantastic kit. It's quality made and goes together without much trouble. Turbonetics has been great as well, and the owner is a good guy.

Stock a6 I believe my dyno was 510rwhp with 580tq, that was a lifetime and a lot of money ago.

What did you dyno Tommy?
